I have a workspace with a view this morning! Creating from a ‘travel kit’ like this makes you use what you have! And with the red kites dancing in the wind outside I could help but be inspired. A couple of tawny owls have just snuggled their way into my sketchbook. Some days the paint calls… I’m on day 40 today of my 100 day challenge. I made 50 prompts to pick at random (to repeat after 50 days) with the aim to fill a sketchbook (or 2!) and play with different media and techniques. I’ve enjoyed the random daily prompt but there are definitely days when I want to rip the page out!! I haven’t!! It’s interesting to see obvious happy places though! Proud that I’m 40 days in. 60 to go! Note to self….. It’s always a lovely day when I’m creating.
